"Incredible room, incredible hosts, and incredible location. Right in the middle of the old town it was easy to walk to any shop or restaurant. Staying in a cave hotel was a once in a life time experience. Matera is a beautiful town rich in history. Absolutely recommend! "

"I have been traveling for 5 months and this hotel was by far my favorite! I was blown away by the attention to detail, the powerful ritual and symposium and the incredible heated pool surrounded by replicas of goddesses. The couples’ massage was wonderful and the staff and experience couldn’t have been better. Mindblowingly great! We loved it! "

Corte San Pietro
10/10 Excellent
"Staying in a cave room but having an entryway in the room with windows out on the gorgeous Matera scenery is perfect. We also had a porch with chairs to sit outside. The breakfast was amazing! Fresh and delicious food served to us by the most welcoming people you could ask for, Angela and Agnese. We also had a wonderful piano player, Gianni, at breakfast every day - now that's a first for us!. If we went back to Matera, which we hope to do some day, we would stay here again. The only negative is WiFi is not reliable in our room. Unfortunately across all of southern Italy our 5g T-mobile plan didn't work either so we used physical maps. We stayed a week and so were able to see a lot of this magnificent area. Most people only stay two or three nights and I feel that is not enough. "
"This is an outstanding hotel in a good location. The checkin process was seamless. The staff were super friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was great and the roof terrace was good for a drink in the afternoon."
"This is a beautiful hotel that opened in April 2025. The staff is lovely and accommodating. Very friendly people.
We ordered room service and it was delicious. "
"The most beautiful and unique hotel. We were taken care of with their excellent concierge before we even got to Italy. The room was exquisite, the food beautiful and I would recommend the candlelit dinner for two. It was the most wonderful and romantic experience. "
"Il Palazzotto in Matera is an absolute GEM! From the breathtaking cave lobby and dining area to our spacious, beautifully decorated room, every detail was charming and elegant. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a glass of Palazzo Zimara Susumaniello, so exquisite it was unforgettable! Breakfasts were delightful, the boutique rupestrian style combined with modern comforts and the incredible Sassi location, made our stay truly exceptional. Viviana, Irene, and Antonio’s warm, and impeccable hospitality completed a perfect experience. Thank you all!! We will wholeheartedly recommend this magical hotel to friends and family!

"Excellent Location and great experience being in the historic centre of Matera . Incredible view just outside the hotel room.its magical . Spa cave is magical and totally relaxing ,I will be back .Never felt lonely as a solo traveller ."
"Optimal location if you want to be close to the confines of the ZTL if arriving by car. Parking is tricky but we were lucky to find free street parking a few minutes away. this was by far the best option to be close to the Sassi but also easy to access the main roads leaving Matera. We were very happy with our stay. There was a private event for 2 nights so we were not able to enjoy the Terrace in the evening - but we had dinner elsewhere so it was ok. They were kind to give us a welcome drink :) "
